==Solution==
==Solution==
If you ever run into this error, let Justin know.  If Justin is unavailable, get Brian.  Remind the lucky person that the issue is most likely networking/router-related.
Obtain an up-to-date base set of binaries for your product and overwrite your installed versions with them. Newer versions of ITrack.exe have a fix in them to correct the two-update issue. Once the up-to-date files are in, update the product as usual using the AU.
 
Document your success/failure here.
 
In some rare cases, disabling/uninstalling firewall/anti-virus software has fixed the issue.
 
==The Workaround==
After getting Justin/Brian, here are the POSSIBLE steps for a fix (unconfirmed):
 
*Change the computer's IP address (either give it a static one, or change its location to a different outlet if possible).
*Restart/Power cycle router/switch/hub.  If hub, find the switch/router it connects to and cycle it too.
*Play around with dhcpd.conf if necessary/possible.
 
==Further things to try==
Since the error is most likely network-related, windows machines can try the following:
*netsh interface ip delete arpcache
*netsh interface ip delete neighbors
*netsh interface ip delete destinationcache
